There's nothing we can do here...


So I've been watching the marathon on SyFy and I have to say it's a cool show. But I did find something about it really weird. When they are chasing the bad guys in their car they usually use a missile and just blow up the other car. It's sitting their on fire, everyone dead and GH says "There's nothing we can do here." and they just leave!!! What the hell?!?! They just murdered a whole car full of people and just leave. Hit and run!!! He's supposed to be the good guy!

I thought that was funny too.

I suppose it says something about the time period. People were used to fighting in wars, in real life, and I suppose they had the attitude that if you were fighting getting blown up is part of the game. Since the draft was stopped, we tend not to want to kill people in shows because we can't imagine it ourselves.

The Green Hornet was a true vigilante who did whatever it took to win the day, and that is one of the reasons everyone thought he was a villain as well. One must wonder why the D.A. is alright with that, though!

Whose idea was it for the word "Lisp" to have an "S" in it?

Exactly. He certainly let the arsonist burn in the last episode!
